Job Introduction
Logistics Security Officer — Olympia
Be part of one of London's most ambitious regeneration projects.
Olympia is undergoing a £1.3 billion transformation — turning this iconic London landmark into a destination for the remarkable and the extraordinary. Think British Airways ARC (a 3,800-capacity live music venue with AEG Presents), the British Airways Theatre (London's largest purpose-built theatre in almost 50 years), hotels with citizenM and Hyatt Regency, 30 restaurants and bars, a boutique gym with 1Rebel, and a brand-new co-educational senior school — all alongside Olympia's existing heritage halls.
As a Logistics Security Officer, you'll keep the loading bay and logistics area safe and running smoothly — the vital, less-seen work that keeps the whole estate moving.
Pay Rate: £15.00 per hour

Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Role
This role is about more than just security — it's about making a difference in the local community.

- Goods-In and Goods-Out Security: Overseeing secure movement of goods; verifying documentation against manifests; watching for tampering, theft, or suspicious packages
- Surveillance & Monitoring: Maintaining situational awareness via direct observation and CCTV; reporting suspicious behaviour; checking ANPR, CCTV, and intercom systems are working
- Coordination & Communication: Liaising with delivery personnel, contractors, and tenants; staying in constant contact with the Control Room; supporting high-value delivery security
- Health, Safety & Emergency Response: Enforcing loading bay safety protocols; responding to accidents, spills, or fire alarms; assisting emergency services
- Documentation: Logging vehicle entries, deliveries, and inspections; completing incident reports and handovers; supporting audits
What We're Looking For
- SIA Door Supervision licence
- SIA Guarding licence and SIA CCTV licence (ideal)
- Experience supervising a small team
- 5 years' checkable work and address history
- At least 18 years old (SIA licensing requirement)
- Able to work 12-hour shifts covering days, nights, and weekends
- A calm head under pressure and a genuine people person
- Someone punctual, professional, and ready to learn

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience across settings like loading bay, gatehouse, corporate, commercial, retail, or events is a bonus, as is a FREC 3 certification — but not essential. Previous security experience is important, but your enthusiasm and willingness to learn matter just as much. We'll provide all the training and support you need to thrive.
